The main factors that drive the explosion :

Send a plague, a new leaf. While the Covid-19 epidemic has crippled all companies and some companies are still recovering, most online companies have just intensified.

What after China and US?

These investors – VCs, hedge funds, pension funds, etc. – seem to bet that India is the next big market emerging where online companies can get it very quickly. It is also one of the largest consumer markets with emerging players and the US and China have grown significantly and are already dominated by positions. India’s huge size and increasing internet availability give starters a huge TAM (total market value) to play in.
IPOs

The following year, at least 3-4 companies – Zomato, Nyka, Delivery and Poly bazaar are expected to go public, prompting a new wave of funding given that startups are finally showing the exit of investors.
